Programming the Database Using an Administrator’s Station

Entry to the Database Programming feature at the Administrator station can be protected using

a password. A password prevents unauthorized users from altering the system database.

NOTE: Passwords are very important to system security. Without sufficient password protec-

tion, the telephone system database is vulnerable to unauthorized access.

Depending on the database changes you make, the system may require a reset after program-

ming. If so, the system will prompt you for a reset and ask if it should be done immediately or

delayed. Delaying the reset may prevent interruption in service. However, if a reset is required

it should be done as soon as possible to permit proper system operation.

NOTE: A system reset will drop all calls in progress.

Entering Alphanumeric Information:

When entering alphanumeric information, such as a username, reminder message, or Do-Not-

Disturb message, press or USE ALPHA MODE/USE NUMERIC MODE menu but-

ton to switch back and forth between alphanumeric and numeric mode.

• In numeric mode, the dialpad buttons are used to enter numbers 0-9, the pound ( )

button is used for entering a hyphen (-), and the asterisk ( ) button is used for entering

a colon (:). For example, 1 00 would enter “1:00” in numeric mode.

• In alphanumeric mode, dialpad buttons are used to enter the desired letters, numbers,

and punctuation. The number of times a button is pressed determines which character is

entered. For example, 533266 would enter “JEAN” in English. When adjoining charac-

ters are located under the same button, press to advance to the next character.

For example, 66

6667776 would enter “NORM.”

• Refer to the table on the following page to program information in alphanumeric mode.

(Note that letters correspond to the letters printed on dialpad buttons.) Japanese charac-

ters will be available only if the Multilingual premium feature is included in your soft-

ware license. Japanese is programmed as a Primary or Secondary Language, and the

Administrator’s station is set for Japanese.
